Thanks Sean! Those TT/Lupo wipers hook or flat blades?

Spluttering and then turns over - this normal too??? Er How do u embed a youtube video on here?

My electric windows U cannot operate both at same time - not work. Only can operate one at a time - normal?

Just making up a list of parts i need then?: 1. Is that headlight bracket thing (snap?) - is that a separate thing u can buy? 2. Directional knob - as someone said, expensive to fix 3. Parts to fix sunroof? - seller included a used sunroof (orange! No seals) 4. Parcel shelf straps (snapped) 5. Tailgate lose trim / fixings 6. New wipers (dealer or ebay) - original hook or aero blade? 7. Floor mats - car came with no floor mats :(

Central locking working :) But i cant see the fuel flap locking - unless there should be a catch on the flap to lock to the body (see pic of my flap above - its just a flat piece of metal!) Will look for that triangle later. No doubt thats missing too i guess! Ref central locking? How do u lock all doors/boot from inside the car? Sorry for so many newbie questions! I have no manual. Is there one on the forum?

Cheers Tiger for pics! I have no first aid box in mine :(

Fuel flap / cap standard? Just read somewhere there were particular fuel caps (not the flap) that was for Corrado with central locking???

First aid kit?

Rear speakers standard???

Other bits ... Loose door handle Lose tailgate trim Bits of rust

Headlight Ah - this centre hole :) Bracket snapped here ...

Thanks bud! :)

Taken knob off - Nope! Still dont work :(

Non working sun roof looks good. Seller says it works - but when tilt only one side opens, and then it cannot close the sunroof :( So darent open it yet... How do u open the sunroof head liner to check for sun roof leaks?

Thanks Tiger! Will give it a go :) My parcel shelf also got a snapped plastic stringy thing. Any fixes? Also Trying to work out the rear centre arm rest? When u unclip it to pull up and forward (facing front) - what's the purpose for that?

Cheers Sanky Awww - the RAC man put in fully synthetic magnetic - forgot what grade :( Will PM :)

Cheers Sean + Hairy Happy to folk out on messy jobs to a garage :) But fiddly ones like headlights / heating controls I like to tackle myself Yes. The CRX heating panel were also going for around £90 too :( My had the JDM bronze glass roof - loved that! Unfortunately mine was an auto - but had acquired parts (gearbox, mounts, pedal box, clutch cable etc) for a manual conversion .. ...sadly due to personal circumstances had to sell the CRX. So now ended up with the Corrado. Much MORE room in back for my 2 sons :) Certainly not LOUD for school runs - lol Er, hopefully she don't leak too :( I know I spent considerable amount of time cleaning the Preludes sunroof water drains, the outlet of those drains in the boot and making new gaskets (water seals) for rear lights. By the way. I couldn't check if the rear arches of the corrado were rusty or not from inside the boot. How do u check?

Just answering Jim s question "blue smoke?" Just to clarify (again :) ... Seller seem genuine. Him and family really nice people :) I fully test driven car but forgot some basics: 1. Check oil 2. Oil cap Mayo 3. Check crash potentials 4. Engine/VIN on car 5. Everything works So RAC top up oil for me - lol I found cabin directional ventilation knob not work If see blue smoke - RUN! Well Car failed previous MOT due to excessive emission. Seller said new coil pack fixed problem. But colleague at work noticed smoke/smell at work. I didnt noticed - but ocassional stationery I can smell strong emission in cabin. And today blue-ish smoke from rear (only for a few minutes whilst setting off)...

Jim I will reply in other thread - else I just be duplicating on 2 threads ....

Started a new thread on here now... http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=89983&p=1059818#post1059818

Cheers Jim and Sanky Rang Chris yesterday and he said I can book it in next week. Rang him just now, and a lady said it will be a fortnight now :( Just want to get the oil / filter + increase coil over height for now. - hopefully fix the stalling + blue smoke?

Phew - glad i got that clarified too! Oh, Also the headlight is held by 2 brackets with screws on top? One of the brackets is snapped off - so one headlight is wobbly held by one bracket screw :(

Out laughing me ;-) Hole meant the Prelude (not Corrado) - just in case any confusion

Cheers Tobz Long list of things to sort ref sticker :) Need the engine proper checked over 1st Yes - Pics on eBay were MINT! But as with my Prelude - described as "apart from a few paint bubbles it is MINT" - it was CERTAINLY not! - big FAT rusted hole underneath we found! Nothing major wrong with my Corrado. So boughg it on the spot. Hopefully nothing major in the comings weeks - eeek!

Just sold my 1991 JDM Honda CRX Have 1989 Gen3 Honda Prelude in garage waiting for drier weathers to be welded So really enjoying the Corrado now :) Hope to get her up and running how she should be in order to enjoy her fully over this summer :) :) :)
